    What does coming off the bench have to do with how many minutes he plays?

    That man has a lot of ankle/foot issues these are just his ankle/foot injuries:

    DATE
    INJURY
    10/19/22 Sprained Ankle
    1/16/22 Foot
    4/19/21 Toe
    4/7/21 Ankle
    3/22/21 Ankle
    8/7/20 Left ankle
    10/30/19 Sprained Right Ankle
    11/23/18 Ankle
    3/16/18 Sprained right ankle
    11/20/17 Ankle

    Outside of feet/ankles, his injuries are a mixture of things, no major injuries but it has been foot/ankle that has caused him to miss all these games the past 2 seasons. 60 games total.

    Oh no, terrible decision by the Clippers… don’t they know that bringing a player off the bench magically makes them prone to hamstring injuries (which then magically go away once the player is back in the starting lineup)?

    To maximize their 2nd unit having Kawhi or PG at all times. More difficult if both start

    That's not at all the reason Chris Haynes gives, he says it's "in order to manage his minutes" nothing to do with them needing to maximize the 2nd unit.

    Kawhi would be willing to come off the bench, but not Westbrook. I see.

    You know, I think Kawhi looks terrific, his body is in great shape and he's such a good player. I am truly looking forward to watching him play 40-50 games this season. Exciting times!

    Patrick Beverly should never be on the mic representing the purple and gold

    This is your Lebrone Los Angeles Lakers - New team every year. Bare cupboard on draft picks. Suckage after he's gone. Ridiculous contracts handed out, and now brutal trades it will be hard to recover from.

    Rob, you're going to make Bron do this for 18 more games before you get your head out of the sand?
